Small Business Consulting for Purpose-Driven Founders
Clear strategy and hands-on support for people building (or planning) businesses that need to work in real life.
Running a small business (or considering launching one) often means holding vision, logistics, finances, and decision-making all at once.
You might have a strong idea but feel unsure how to translate it into something workable. Or you may already be in motion, with momentum and clients, but behind the scenes things feel messy, reactive, or unsustainable.
I work with small business owners and early-stage entrepreneurs who want clarity, structure, and forward motion, whether they’re planning a new business or refining an existing one.
Small Business Strategy & Planning Support
Who This Work Is For
I’m a good fit if you:
-
Are considering launching a small business and want help shaping your idea into something actionable
-
Are already running a business and feeling stretched or scattered
-
Want clarity around what’s possible within your real-life constraints
-
Care about sustainability (financially, operationally, and personally)
-
Value thoughtful strategy paired with real implementation
This work is especially helpful for people who want to build something intentional, not just ambitious.
Common Challenges I Help Address
Whether you’re early-stage or already operating, I often see:
-
Ideas that feel exciting but hard to organize or prioritize
-
Uncertainty about financial viability or capacity
-
Decisions staying stuck in your head instead of turning into action
-
Systems that haven’t kept up with growth (or never existed to begin with)
-
A sense that something could work, but only with more clarity
These are signs you need structure, support, and space to think clearly.
Not sure what the next right step is?
This short planning guide helps founders turn ideas and pressure into clearer, more actionable priorities, even with limited time.
How I Support Small Businesses
Most people come to me knowing they want something to change, but not always knowing where to start. My work typically takes one of two forms, depending on what will be most supportive right now.
Strategic Intensive for Small Business Planning
This small business planning intensive helps founders turn ideas into an actionable business plan, basic financials, and clear next steps.
This is a strong fit if you want to:
-
Shape a business idea into something actionable
-
Clarify your direction, priorities, and next steps
-
Develop a realistic business plan and basic financial picture
-
Understand what’s possible within your life, capacity, and goals
Many people use this as a starting point, whether to move forward independently or as a foundation for deeper work.
Ongoing Small Business Strategy & Implementation Support
This ongoing small business consulting support helps founders implement plans, refine systems, and grow sustainably.
This work may include:
-
Strategic planning and follow-through
-
Business model refinement
-
Operational or systems support
-
Branding and messaging alignment
-
Marketing planning and support
-
Technology and workflow setup
-
Ongoing advisory support
The goal isn’t to do everything at once; it’s to build something that can grow without burning you out.
A Human-Centered Approach to Building a Business
Because of my background as a therapist, I pay close attention to where things get stuck, not just strategically, but internally.
Planning and growth become difficult when:
-
Everything lives in your head
-
Pressure accumulates without clarity
-
Your business expectations don’t match your actual life
I bring both a systems lens and a human one, helping people build businesses that are viable, aligned, and sustainable.
This May NOT Be a Fit If...
This work may not be the right fit if:
-
You’re looking for quick hacks or passive income formulas
-
You want a plug-and-play business template
-
You’re not ready to make thoughtful decisions
Clarity upfront helps everyone.
